Read the following steps to learn how to get a flat stomach.

First things first, quit thinking that crunches are going to give you a flat stomach. Crunches only work the surface muscles and not the muscles underneath them. In order to burn one pound of fat, you would have to do 100 crunches every day for 7 years. That equals 250, 000 crunches. I don’t believe that you want to do that.

The core moves are: The basic and side plank, glute bridge march, lunge with rotation, plank with arm lift, side plank with rotation, hip thigh raise and reverse lunge with single arm press. These exercises target the hidden muscles. To figure out where the muscles are, try this exercise. Lay on your back with palms just below the navel. Breathe out as much as you can letting your stomach reach full extension. Now pull you belly button in towards the spine, bringing your abdomen towards the floor. Hold this position for 5 seconds. Repeat 8 to 10 times.

The second rule is to get your bottom moving. Your butt and belly are partners. Sitting around all the time makes your glutes useless. It also causes hip flexors, the muscle that connects hips and legs, to stiffen. Because of this, your pelvis starts tilting forward. This makes your back arch more and stresses your spine. Basically, it pushes your abdomen out, causing a stomach bulge. In other words, if you want to lose your stomach, you have to move your butt.

Make your glutes stronger with the glute bridge march or hip thigh raise. To stretch the hip flexor, assume a lunge position with hind knee on the floor. Maintain good posture while pressing your hip forward. When you feel the stretch in the front part, hold for 10 seconds. Then relax and repeat. You can put your arms above your head to get a better stretch.

Pay attention to what you consume. Lose weight by eating dairy, nuts, fish or meat in place of carbs.

Reduce your sugar intake. Most people consume about 20 teaspoons of sugar every day. The sugar comes from processed foods such as soda, baked goods, cereals, fruit drinks and yogurt. That much sugar slows your metabolism and increases the amount of insulin that your body produces.

Lower your stress level. Stress makes some people eat unhealthy food which results in weight gain.

Let your muscles rest for at least a day. That is how long it takes them to repair themselves from exercising. All it takes is working out 3 times a week to get the results you want. Perform 15-20 reps of each exercise..

If you’re going on crash diets hoping to get six pack abs, that’s not How to get a Flat Stomach. You can get a Flat tummy by doing just a few easy exercises and watching what you eat and getting on your feet more often. See how easy it is to get a flat stomach now!
